âMuan! Where have you been all this time?â Seeing Xu Muan, Aunt Li immediately approached and asked.
Xu Muan said vaguely, âWent out to pick up someone.â
âYouâre just coming back so you donât know what happened! When you were not here, these bitchy gold diggers were all around your husband. Qiu Bai, who used to be so cold and indifferent to your husband, became very passionate.â Aunt Li was full of sarcasm.
Xu Muan lowered his head and laughed. Xiao Xiaodong told him that when he was away, many matchmakers brought people to their home, but they were all driven away by him and Xiaofan.
When Xu Muan came back, he met Qiu Bai who looked at him with a face full of resentment, as if he had robbed his husband from him.
âMuan! Your husband is very popular now, so you better keep an eye on him!â Aunt Liâs words were sincere.
Xu Muan smiled and said, âItâs all right.â
Qiu Bai was nothing, but Sun Miaomiao was a thorny one. When Sun Miaomiao was mentioned, Xiao Jingting was indifferent, as if he hated to know this woman. A personâs temperament might change with the things he experienced, but to change so much at once was just too weird.
Xu Muan and Xiao Jingting had slept together and the features of Xiao Jingtingâs body were clear to Xu Muan. If he did not know that Xiao Jingtingâs body was the same one, Xu Muan would suspect that someone else was pretending to be Xiao Jingting.
Xu Muan vaguely guessed that Xiao Jingting was possessed. However, no matter who the other party was, he was much better than the original Xiao Jingting. Since the old Xiao Jingting had changed, Xu Muan only felt like he was living in paradise every day, so he did not intend to speak about it.
âMr. Xu, you are so generous! What kind of person did you bring back?â Aunt Li asked.
Xu Muan smiled and said vaguely, âRelatives.â
âThose two people look like theyâre both talented. Their strength shouldnât be low, right?â Aunt Li asked.
Xu Muan nodded and said, âMmâ. Even though Xiao Jinfeng had been poisoned and his strength had regressed quite a bit, a skinny camel was still bigger than a horse. Xiao Jinfengâs strength was still outstanding in this village.
âHave he got married yet?â Aunt Li asked.
Xu Muan, â..â
â¦â¦â¦â¦
âWhere have you been?!â Xiao Jingting looked at Xu Muan and asked.
âWhen I went out to pour the water, I met Auntie Li and chatted for a bit.â Xu Muan said.
âAunt Li? What did she say?â
âShe asked what your brotherâs background was and whether he was married.â
Xiao Jingting was stunned for a moment and then said, âWhat does she want to do?â
Xu Muan laughed and said, âI guess she wants to be a matchmaker for your brother.â
âWhat did you say?â Xiao Jingting asked.
Xu Muan smiled and said, âI said your brother is not married yet, but he has fallen for someone and they have a good relationship.â
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, âThen, itâs good. I see that second brother and Mu Shuyu are quite a good match. Moreover, Mu Shuyuâs moral character is good.â
âYeah!â He and Xiao Jingting were married, but there were still some people who came to covet Xiao Jingting one after another. He was afraid that those people would still come and try to make Xiao Jinfeng their husband since Xiao Jinfeng hadnât got married.
âI heard from Xiaofan that Qiu Bai always came to pick grapes.â
Xiao Jingting smiled helplessly and said, âYes! Some thick-skinned people would come, but there is nothing I could do about it. In fact, itâs not just Qiu Bai, but fortunately, they havenât gone too far. â
In the countryside, as long as it was not way across the line, it was not uncommon to go to someone elseâs house to get some food. Xiao Jingting couldnât say much about it. He had to go out during the day, leaving only two little kids at home, which was really too inconvenient. Recently, when he went out, he asked the two kids to lock the door of the courtyard.
Xu Muan nodded and said, âIn the future, when you have money, you can build the courtyard wall higher and buy two dogs to protect the courtyard.â
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, âThatâs what I thought too.â
âSecond brother is gone?â Xu Muan asked.
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, âYes, I was afraid he would not have enough money so I gave all of my money to my second brother and I also gave him the remaining wine. Fortunately, there are a few mus of fields with spirit plants that are about to mature, so I can sell them for money.â
Xu Muan nodded and said, âThatâs good.â
âThe traps in our field have caught a lot of prey in recent days, and we picked up a lot of them. Itâs a pity that they were found late and the prey were taken away.â Xiao Jingting shook his head and said.
Xu Muan comforted him, âNo matter what, itâs good to catch the prey even if it is for nothingâ¦â
âThe prey that came recently is getting stronger and stronger, the traps wonât work.â Xiao Jingting had some worries.
Xu Muan pondered for a while, and then said, âThe spiritual plants in first-class fields will not matureuntil a few more days later, by then, second brother should also come back.â
Xiao Jingting nodded and said, âYes, the situation will be better when second brother returns.â
